The Legend of Hallowaiian

I had no idea what I had missed in my life before this absolutely magnificent gem crossed my redbox selection screen. It seemed like it was going to be a generic movie, but they pulled out all the stops with the heartstopping CGI, especially in the first few minutes of it. I won't spoil the amazing plot, they definitely had a good time one night creating it, but I will say the animations were the best I've seen since I was born. This movie should be shown across the world on what animation should look like, far outweighing the likes of Marvel and DC themselves. I especially loved how the textures on nearly everything, specifically lava, was meticulously designed by the animators to stay constant the entire time. It was so incredibly realistic, every time the beast was on screen, I felt like I was completely immersed in the moment. It feels like destiny bestowed apon me this masterfully crafted earthshattering cinematic beauty. I would 100 percent recommend this documentary for all ages, except for those who's IQ falls between 1 and 150 due to the movie's vague representation of themes shown throughout the movie. I enjoyed this movie so much, that nothing else, for as long as I may live, will ever compare to the overjoy I felt watching this cinematic piece of art. The only criticism I have about this incredible masterpiece is that I could not for the life of me find any merchandise! If there was any chance I could purchase merch for this movie, I would take it in a heartbeat. This movie makes a statement on society that I simply couldn't fathom for the rest of time. If only I could give this movie more stars because of how gamechanging this state of the art masterpiece it is, then I would rate it 15 stars.

The animation is distracting. When the main charters are talking there are angles that show way too much detail of teeth and interior mouth (unnatural) while a waterfall looks like a quick draft or mock-up that was never rendered in full detail. The walking is odd too - the feet never seem to touch what the are supposed to be walking on. The Elvis cover song at the end is the worst version I've ever heard. While the background music is somewhat supportive of the action it was lacking a Hawaiian-like vibe. The story is wonderfully free from consumerism and modern tech. It's a fun story, good for kids and adults who like the cartoon and animation genre. Don't look too deep, enjoy the story's location and folklore references.

I wanted to watch this movie because it looked horrible. I guess I was right.
